I am sure a lot of you will go - here we go again but I can't find specifically what my problem is so here we go... no spark....

1929 Coupe - 6 volt positive ground...

Purchase new:
Ignition switch
coil
Ignition cable
"Modern upper distributor plate with modern points and condenser"

installed all - no spark

I have check ignition switch, coil (positive and negative) and distributor plate and all show to have power.

I checked the wire coming out the coil and i show now power (not sure i should) and I also checked the coil wire coming out of the distributor and no power (no sire it should show any)

no be be honest when I put the new distributor plate in i DID NOT reset my timing pin etc.....

Is that the problem related to no spark?
